The Monkees fue una banda de rock creada artificialmente para un programa de televisión y que tuvo bastante éxito en la década de los 60. Como curiosidad, sólo uno de sus integrantes era músico; el resto aprendió a tocar durante la producción del programa.
Sus integrantes, tres de ellos originarios de Los Angeles, USA, y uno de Manchester, Inglaterra, eran Davy Jones (voz y percusión), Michael Nesmith (voz y guitarra) Peter Tork (teclado, bajo y voz) y Micky Dolenz (voz y batería).
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
